Neighborhood Vitality & Beautification Grants

The new 2019-2020 Program Guidelines are now available. Connect with the Program Administrator now to confirm eligibility of proposed project and neighborhood group.

Program Overview

The City of Plano has developed the Neighborhood Vitality and Beautification Grant Program to support the city’s strategic goal of “vibrant and renewing neighborhoods”. This program provides matching grants to neighborhood groups interested in building strong relationships around a community-driven beautification project. All projects must:

support neighborhood goals

be highly visible from the public realm

have a community benefit

enlist community participation

result in an enhancement of the neighborhood appearance

be within the City of Plano limits

The program is a matching grant that requires a match from the neighborhood. The match requirement can be met with cash, in-kind donations, and volunteer hours. Please review the guidelines for more information.

The program has two grant cycles, fall and spring, each year. New program changes have been made. Carefully review the 2019-2020 Guidelines. The Pre-Application is due July 1st. Full applications are due August 1st. Paper applications will no longer be accepted.
